Problems solved by technology

However, during the injection process, heterogeneous nanocatalysts will seriously affect the reservoir permeability due to adsorption, retention, clogging and other phenomena, and it is not easy to disperse evenly in crude oil after being transported to the reservoir, which restricts the application of this technology

Abstract

The invention provides an injecting method of an underground modifying and viscosity-reducing nano catalyst for thickened oil. The method is characterized in that the precursor micro-emulsion of the modifying and viscosity-reducing nano catalyst for the thickened oil is injected into a stratum first, the precursor micro-emulsion is water-in-oil type micro-emulsion, the precursor micro-emulsion can automatically enter oil phase and evenly dispersed after being injected into the stratum due to the fact that the the outer phase of the micro-emulsion is oleophylic hydrogen donor, nano reaction occurs when the temperature of inner phase rises to 160-200 DEG C, and no extra energy needs to be injected due to the fact that the decomposition temperature is lower than the modifying temperature of the thickened oil. Compared with a method directly injecting the nano catalyst, the injecting method has the advantages that the automatic oil finding function of the nano catalyst can be achieved, the problem that nano catalyst is easy in absorption and blocking during injection can be avoided, effective injecting of the nano catalyst is achieved, and the modification and viscosity reduction of crude oil can be effectively catalyzed under a medium-temperature condition.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of oil field exploitation, and in particular relates to an injection method of a heavy oil underground upgrading and viscosity-reducing nanometer catalyst. Background technique [0002] In the process of oil field development of heavy oil / ultra-heavy oil, effective recovery cannot be achieved simply by increasing the viscosity of the displaced phase, and reducing the viscosity of the displaced phase (crude oil) has become an effective technical approach to enhance oil recovery. At present, the existing technologies for achieving effective recovery by reducing the viscosity of the oil phase mainly include three categories: thermal viscosity reduction recovery, physical viscosity reduction recovery with chemical agents, and upgrading and viscosity reduction recovery. [0003] (1) Thermal viscosity reduction production: refers to injecting hot water, steam and other heat sources into the oil reservoir to heat the crude o...
